I was appalled at the comments this woman n made about a rape survivor. She is not fit to be on the board.

With respect for the executive director and the very food work undertaken by the trust, this is unacceptable and must be made an example of.

This level of women hatred must be stopped. Remove her stat. Quisling. Women, Adult human females have the right to single sex spaces.

Females deserve safe spaces after suffering from male violence. This woman is a traitor to women everywhere who have fought long & hard for our rights. Get her out!

Leenas comments pushing for a sexual assault victim to be "spat" on is disturbing and inexcusable. She does not belong on the board!

What an utterly abhorrent woman. Victims of male sexual violence should be able to discuss their experiences away from the presence of males, no matter how those males identify.

This is absolutely disgusting. How someone can speak of a rape victim in this way, let alone someone who is supposed to support and advocate for them, appals me. She should be removed from the board immediately

Truly shameful behaviour from someone who is meant to understand the challenges women all too often face.

Comments she made about a rape victim were despicable.

There really is no possible excuse for saying that about a rape victim, absolutely no circumstance under which it would be excusable. None.

As a survivor who needed a single sex service to recover, this comment by Leena is sickening victim blaming.

Appalling. Actions like this are clear evidence she must lose the privilege to work with vulnerable victims and can no longer retain the position she holds.

This person has no place running any organisation supporting women - because she doesn't.

Unbelievable that a woman who works for a supposedly advocacy group for woman, can make such vile statements toward another woman.

Unbelieveable that a fellow Australian could direct such hate against a rape survivor.

Acknowledging sex is not hate, but inciting violence on a victim is. Deplorable!
